AI Technical Summary
When existing horizontally movable water level measuring devices are in use, the center of gravity shifts after the device moves, making the column prone to tipping over.
By setting up a locking pin and slot structure, the spring force drives the lifting ring to slide vertically. The sliding of the lifting ring drives the four sets of positioning frames to slide synchronously. The sliding of the positioning frames drives the telescopic block to slide horizontally through the connecting slot. This allows the telescopic block to slide and cause the locking pin to engage with the slot on the outer wall of the column, achieving rapid installation of the column and preventing it from tipping over.
This enables rapid installation and stability of the columns, preventing them from tipping over during movement and improving the stability and flexibility of the device.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water level measurement technology, and in particular relates to a water level measuring device that can move laterally. Background Technology
[0002] Water conservancy involves many aspects such as flood control and drainage, navigation and power generation, and is of great significance to people's livelihood. However, the construction of water conservancy projects and the development of water conservancy undertakings require information such as river water levels and regional rainfall.
[0003] For example, patent CN214471172U discloses a movable water level measuring device based on ultrasonic ranging, including a base plate, a rotating shaft, a crossbar, a sliding rod, an ultrasonic sensor, and a control box. The bottom end of the rotating shaft is mounted on the base plate, one end of the crossbar is vertically mounted on the rotating shaft, and the crossbar has a groove. Both ends of the sliding rod are fixed to the ends of the groove, and one end of the sliding rod is slidably fitted onto the sliding rod. The ultrasonic sensor is mounted on the other end of the sliding rod. The control box is used to receive and process the measurement signals from the ultrasonic sensor. This invention enables multi-point measurement, improving the utilization rate and flexibility of the instrument.
[0004] Existing horizontally movable water level measuring devices suffer from a shift in center of gravity after movement, making the support column prone to tipping over. Therefore, we propose a horizontally movable water level measuring device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing a horizontally movable water level measuring device, thereby preventing the center of gravity from shifting after the water level measuring device moves, which could cause the column to easily tip over.
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a horizontally movable water level measuring device, including an embedded part, an installation cylinder fixedly connected to the top of the embedded part, a column penetrating the interior of the installation cylinder, an installation frame fixedly connected to the top of the installation cylinder, a spring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation frame, a lifting ring fixedly connected to the top of the spring, a positioning frame fixedly connected to the top of the lifting ring, a pressure ring fixedly connected to the top of the positioning frame, a connecting groove formed on the outer wall of the positioning frame, a telescopic block movably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove, a locking pin fixedly connected to the outer wall of the telescopic block, a locking groove formed at the connection between the column and the locking pin, a connecting frame fixedly connected to the top of the column, a crossbar fixedly connected to one end of the connecting frame, a motor fixedly connected to the inner wall of the crossbar, a screw fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a threaded slider threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw, a moving rod fixedly connected to the top of the threaded slider, a limiting hole plate slidably connected to the outer wall of the moving rod fixedly connected to one end of the crossbar, and a water level sensor fixedly connected to one end of the moving rod.
[0007] Based on the above structure, the spring drives the lifting ring to slide vertically through its own elastic force. The sliding of the lifting ring drives the four sets of positioning frames to slide synchronously. The sliding of the positioning frames drives the telescopic block to slide horizontally through the connecting groove. This causes the telescopic block to slide and engage the locking pin with the locking groove on the outer wall of the column, realizing the quick installation of the column and preventing the column from tipping over.
[0008] Preferably, the central axes of the embedded part, the mounting cylinder, and the column coincide. In this embodiment, it is beneficial for workers to insert the column into the mounting cylinder on the embedded part.
[0009] Preferably, the positioning frame is provided in four sets, and the four sets of positioning frames are distributed in a circle at equal angles about the center of the lifting ring. In this embodiment, by providing four sets of positioning frames, the sliding of the lifting ring drives the four sets of positioning frames to slide synchronously, which helps to improve the stability of the column installation.
[0010] Preferably, the connecting groove is inclined. In this embodiment, by setting an inclined connecting groove, the positioning frame slides through the connecting groove to drive the telescopic block to slide horizontally, so that the telescopic block slides to drive the locking pin to engage with the locking groove on the outer wall of the column.
[0011] Preferably, the locking pin is trapezoidal in shape. In this embodiment, by setting a trapezoidal locking pin, it is beneficial to improve the stability of the locking pin and the groove of the outer wall of the column.
[0012] Preferably, the cross-section of the threaded slider is I-shaped. In this embodiment, the motor drives the threaded slider to slide along the inner wall of the cross frame through the screw. The sliding of the threaded slider drives the moving rod to slide. By setting the threaded slider with an I-shaped cross-section, the stability of the moving rod sliding is improved.
[0013] Preferably, the screw and the moving rod are parallel. In this embodiment, by setting a limiting hole plate, the stability of the moving rod sliding is improved. The sliding of the moving rod drives the water level sensor to slide synchronously, thereby enabling water level measurement operations in different areas and preventing the moving rod from bending.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This horizontally movable water level measuring device, by setting a locking pin and a locking groove, allows the spring to drive the lifting ring to slide vertically through its own elastic force. The sliding of the lifting ring drives the four sets of positioning frames to slide synchronously. The sliding of the positioning frames drives the telescopic block to slide horizontally through the connecting groove, so that the sliding of the telescopic block causes the locking pin to engage with the locking groove on the outer wall of the column, realizing the quick installation operation of the column and preventing the column from tilting.
[0016] 2. This horizontally movable water level measuring device, by setting a moving rod, has a motor driving a screw to slide a threaded slider along the inner wall of the cross frame. The sliding of the threaded slider causes the moving rod to slide synchronously along the groove of the limiting hole plate. By setting the limiting hole plate, the stability of the moving rod's sliding is improved. The sliding of the moving rod causes the water level sensor to slide synchronously, thereby enabling water level measurement operations in different areas. Attached Figure Description
